Chiara Mattiello

Chiara Matterello
DipWSET
Born above a vat, she spent the first years of her life breathing the vineyard and, above all, the winemaking, with the room above the fermenting vat. Graduated in International Economics and Commerce in 2007, in 2008 she decided to embark on a long training course in the world of Wine and Food communication. A wine taster, sommelier, brand ambassador, and WSET Certified professional, she is currently studying to compete for the prestigious WSET Diploma at the WSET London School.
In 2014 she decided to transform her passion into work, first as export manager in a leading company in Valpolicella, then in one of the most important institutes for marketing applied to sensory analysis and finally as marketing and communication manager of the Soave wine protection consortium.
She also works as a branding and positioning consultant for some restaurants and farms in the Verona area. She managed the communication of an important project on incoming tourism in Italy, following editorial plans and copy for the contents of the website. She also organizes and holds tasting evenings and masterclasses around the world on wine.
The “DipWSET,” or Diploma in Wines and Spirits, is a prestigious Level 4 qualification offered by the Wine & Spirit Education Trust (WSET). This comprehensive program is designed for wine and spirits professionals, as well as serious enthusiasts, who are eager to deepen their knowledge and expertise.
Through rigorous coursework and examinations, students explore a wide range of topics, including viticulture, vinification, wine regions, spirits production, and global wine markets. Upon successful completion, graduates are equipped with an advanced understanding of the wine and spirits industry, allowing them to excel in their careers and become respected authorities in the field.
